Mastercard Start Path Welcomes Seven Fintechs, Including Cyberwrite, to Help Build the Future of Commerce. Cyberwrite has been selected by Mastercard to join the prestigious Start Path global startup engagement program — one of only seven fintechs worldwide chosen from a highly competitive global application process.
About Mastercard Start Path
Mastercard's Start Path program is a highly selective global startup engagement initiative designed to accelerate later-stage startups that are developing innovative solutions in financial technology, commerce, and digital security. Companies accepted into Start Path gain access to Mastercard's global network of partners, clients, and resources — as well as mentorship from Mastercard executives and subject matter experts across the financial services ecosystem.
Why Cyberwrite was selected
Cyberwrite was chosen for its patented AI technology that enables insurers, reinsurers, and brokers to assess and quantify cyber risk for any company — in seconds, at scale. Mastercard recognized Cyberwrite's ability to address one of the most critical gaps in financial security: the lack of reliable, data-driven cyber risk quantification tools that enable businesses to understand their exposure and obtain appropriate insurance coverage.
The selection reflected Cyberwrite's unique position at the intersection of cybersecurity, insurance technology, and AI — and its demonstrated traction with leading insurance carriers globally.
Impact
Participation in the Start Path program accelerated Cyberwrite's access to financial institution clients globally and supported the company's international expansion. The partnership with Mastercard also led to a joint cyber risk research initiative examining the financial exposure of municipal organizations — demonstrating the real-world applicability of Cyberwrite's financial impact modeling beyond the traditional insurance context.
